I will always inherently disagree with roll battles. I think its fine for people who are less knowledgeable with fighting and basic anatomy, but most of the fights I do are not left up to rolls because fighting isn't 100% chance. I recognize, as do most of the people I actually RP fight with, that some things are not avoidable and some things are outright impossible anatomically.
Also, I like to recognize other people's higher prowess in combat RP and will RP to a lesser skill in fields my character has lesser skill. Rolls should be left up to chance and chance alone, if you ask me. Unless you are not confident in your own or your partner's abilities.
I can super agree with you if I wasn't solely basing it off of RP fundamentals. Characters and whatnot are a different story, but I mean to touch up moreso on the fairness of an RP battle for both parties. In which rule three I claim that if it's fixed, talk about it and go about it accordingly.
